Was surprised we had to go outside to get from one room to another. Could be a problem in real winter. Hosts were good and very amicable. I did have difficulty cooking a whole meal. Microwave and one hot plate. This was fine for breakfast, but a challenge for other full meals. Would suit those dinning out or using takeaway

We had a lovely 3 night getaway here. Very close to Pukekura Park and an easy commute by car or e.bike into town. The gardens at the property were gorgeous and Shirley and her family were available but not intrusive. Would recommend this accommodation.

New Plymouth Cabin

This is a lovely, quiet, small basic cabin, ideal for one or two nights, but would prefer more rooms if staying longer in New Plymouth. Shirley is a lovely host and the description of the cabin is as it was. Very handy & convenient to New Plymouth attractions.
